Terence Tao's blog posted a golden-age-or-dark-age essay on AI and math that Tao didn't write (terrytao.wordpress.com)
Maggi's essay says AI could usher in a golden age of mathematics or a dark age, and argues 'reality will likely combine these scenarios'. His warnings: proofs correct but unreadable, mathematicians guarding their ideas, and a few companies controlling the tools.
Readers argued mostly about Tao himself, with one calling the move from AI booster to worry 'Oh nO MaThS iS KilLeD'.
